This was first aired 30 years 11 months and 6 days ago. I was only 13 years old when this first aired. This was such a good show when I was only 13 years old. This was my favorite show of all times and also my childhood memories.

i was fifteen and remember watching it

[@bothornton5246]

I loved it, too! I was 10, and I would always wait for it come on. Great show!

[@williamwoods5592]

This is such a great show for real.

[@antoniolezama8525]

I can't find any other Larry Springfield performances. His voice pops, locks, and rocks! Bought his debut solo album wayyy back in the day.

He running for city council in Memphis

I remember I was four-a -half I was watching this episode.

[@bostonteaparty3926]

That child singing Anita Bakers sound blew that girl away! And they gave to the horrible singer Reba Rice? Wow!

[@drummingdanny84]

Rachel was BAD! Rachel found out she was a semifinalist by surprise at the end of one episode because she got a high score. She wasn’t playing around during this round. Definitely brought her A-game up. Reeva wasn’t that good, sorry to say.

[@bothornton5246]

Rachel WAS better. I would have voted for her.

The first episode where they changed the font from the condensed Helvetica to the same font they used on programs like "Mr. Belvedere", "Who's the Boss?", and "Perfect Strangers".

What exactly is a “spokesmodel”? Why isn’t it just a model? I’ve never understood the word “spokesmodel”.

[@pannoni8449]

It goes together with TV, just like you can't be seen on radio or can't speak on a magazine page. It's the only place I've heard of the term "spokesmodel" being used.

[@blessisrael6455]

@@pannoni8449They have those spokesmodels on commercials like Neutragema, makeup, shampoo…etc. (or used to…)

46:50 Rachel Choate worked that Anita Baker song better than Anita! How did she lose to the other women Reva Rice? 49:04 Reva not bad but sounded more like she was screaming!

[@derricklee2820]

Reva Rice 💚💙💛💜

[@bostonteaparty3926]

She did not out sing the other lady. Reva's voice was so uncontrolled and her challenger was on fire with Anita Baker's song. They awarded the wrong person this night! Wow!

[@derrickscepter8691]

We’re gonna have to agree to disagree on that one. Reva PERFORMED that song! She worked the entire stage. Body language. Was engaging with the audience. She delivered her performance so I see why they went with Reva.

[@blugreen123]

It amazes me that they always managed to find the most bland, sound alike male singers ever. 🤣

[@georgeshepherd6431]

I can't believe people actually took this show seriously

[@JonnyTainment]

Hey, it discovered a lot of rising stars.

[@digitalcurrents]

1990 to 1993 were its best years. Beyonce, Justin Timerlake, Christina Aigulera, LeAnn Rimes, Britney Spears, Alanis Morissette, Dave Chappell.
